1 Troy Place, Glendowie, Auckland 1050, New Zealand
From the same era that brought us the Group Architects homes, No 1 Troy Place evokes memories of a simple Kiwiana existence, where architecture was ‘logically contrived for peace and comfort’.
The home is classical and comforting yet functional and family driven. The open plan living area is cleverly offset from the new kitchen which is the hub of the house and flows effortlessly out to a north facing suntrap deck, garden and separate bunkhouse, the perfect teenage escape or potential home office.
Three of the four bedrooms flow out to the north and there is a separate children’s living room off two of the bedrooms, both of which are bathed in afternoon sun.
Understated and conveniently located in this cul-de-sac, a short walk to Sacred Heart and Glendowie College and also on the bus routes to other top schools, the city and the waterfront.
